The National Hellenic Research Foundation (NHRF) and the Örebro University (ÖU) signed a Letter of Intent declaring their intention to collaborate in the areas of Medical and Life Science research.

The announced collaboration between Greece and Sweden will result in:

- The participation of the National Hellenic Research Foundation (NHRF) through its three institutes that conduct research within the Life Sciences: The Institute of Biological Research and Biotechnology, The Institute of Organic and Pharmaceutical Chemistry and The Theoretical and Physical Chemistry Institute. 

- The participation of the Örebro University (ÖU) through the faculties of Health and Medical Science and Science and Technology that carry out research and educate graduate students within the areas of Medical and Life Sciences.
